Gary and Wendy Redinger's 1947 Chevy 3100

From Gary:

           This is the truck we've been waiting a long time for. It was born the same year as I was so we both need a little work to get back in shape.

           The truck has a 1965 Chevelle "283" and rear end. The front end is original and as we plan to travel around a lot, we're going to put a Mustang II front end with power steering, restore the chrome, new interior, and mahogany bed boards. We may do air conditioning later.

           Fortunately, the body is immaculate with no bondo. It needs gasketing on all the exterior openings -- they are all dried out. The truck sat in a barn for the last 10 years and has the rats nests to prove it.

           We'll send more pics when more is done.
